Please Note: Book bags are NOT permitted in the classroom.

All students attending St. Francis Xavier Catholic High School must be in full uniform while on school property and while representing St. Francis in the community at large. We expect our school uniform to be worn proudly and neatly. As well, we ask parents/guardians to assist and support our school in upholding this standard.

A student will not be admitted to class if they are not in proper uniform. If a student is not admitted to class he/she will be responsible for all work missed, and will be sent to the library.
